Hourglass lighting did a great job at our wedding. Steve was super responsive throughout the whole process, from my initial inquiry all the way through delivery and installation. He took the time to listen to our needs, and offered a number of suggestions to fit the bill. We... Read More wound up getting exactly what we wanted for a reasonable price. The lighting was fantastic, set the mood exactly how we had envisioned it. Many of our guests commented on the great string lights. Hourglass already had a great relationship w/ our venue and wedding coordinator, which made the process even easier yet. So glad that we were refereed to Steve, and will be sure to recommend him to others. Thanks!

Great choice!

Steve was a pleasure to work with--so effortless to check uplighting off our endless wedding planning to-do list.

We are so pleased we 1) got uplighting and 2) worked with Steve. Such a win/win scenario. Thanks, Steve!

My wife and I found the perfect setting for our dream wedding. An incredibly rustic barn in the Hudson Valley area in the fall with the leaves turning. My wife and I had a friend of the family who assured us he could provide everything we would need for lighting, as we had... Read More done a great amount of research and brainstorming as to how we wanted this barn to be lit. Unfortunately, a few weeks before the wedding date, our lighting source fell through. In a state of panic and stress, we turned to TheKnot.com for suggestions. As it turns out, we couldn't have been luckier than finding Steve from Hourglass Lighting. In our first conversation, he immediately checked his availability and ensured us that this was something he could take care of. Steve at Hourglass Lighting has the means to do some really incredible things with lighting, however, he was most concerned about giving my wife and me exactly what we wanted. With only a few days to plan, Steve used pictures of inspiration that we had sent him to mock up precisely what we wanted. After speaking with Steve on the phone a number of times, I had complete trust in him that he was going to light our barn to its fullest beauty. In a million years, I never thought a lighting designer could create such warmth, beauty and ambience, let alone with practically no warning. Steve blew away every expectation we had, all the while doing it with extreme ease and kindness. The pictures we have from the reception are truly stunning, and we have Hourglass Lighting to thank. He truly saved our day. Cannot recommend this company enough!
